    You know, this would be the best fight in the division but Tua isn't going to play ball right now. He wants a big payday this year, and Brewster isn't it. My guess is one more title shot and then he'll hang them up.

      They mustn't feel that they're ready yet, but they're taking their time. Tua needs to go forward, not stay on the same level.

        Maybe he doesn't feel ready yet? After all, he didn't look good enough in his last fights. Brewster is no joke, and it's pronanly too early to take him on right now. I agree with y'all though, he needs to be hungry for a title again.

            He's talking a good game, but nothing's really happening. It would be good to see him back to old form, or even somewhere close. A fight with Valuev would have to be the funniest thing ever.

              Nice pic. Was this before or after you met him in his fight against Gutierrez(i think it was that one)?

                This was 2 days before the last one with Hawkins, but I was at the Guttierez fight.

                  I think Brewster is one of the best, yet underrated and undertrained, heavyweights out there. He needs to take the sport more seriously.

                  I think he can easily defeat Briggs to capture a portion of the title. We'll see.

                    How tall is he? Is he really 5'9?
